It is very important when planning and designing your kitchen that you choose the right doors for your kitchen units. There are a range of styles and designs available, a selection of door styles and types are listed below.

Plain Board- Coloured or woodgrain MFC (Melamine Faced Chipboard) which is lipped all round. These will generally be the least expensive door choice.

Vinyl Wrap Moulded - Moulded from MDF (Medium Density Fibre-board) and ‘wrapped’ using heat and vacuum with a thin vinyl sheet.

Vinyl Wrap Framed - The false ‘wood-grain’ with a wood door can be a problem due to the vinyl only running in one direction. By framing the material and centre panels which are then vinyl-wrapped separately in order to be cut and assembled to give the impression of a solid wood door.

Wood - Hand-crafted from the exact solid wood you specify and deep-waxed for feel and smell. This is generally the most expensive option, however for a least expensive option these are likely to be machine-made in something like Pine and then stained and varnished in a wide range of hardwood colours. Please note that there are a huge variety of options between these.

Many other types of specialist doors are available such as solid glass and metal-finishes, but some are not suitable or practical with certain kitchen designs.

When planning and designing your kitchen it is also good to remember that not all Kitchen Doors have to be solid, you could choose to display your items behind framed glass cabinet doors or alternatively on open shelf units.

Once you have decided which style of door to use in your new kitchen, one of your next steps is to decided which type of handle would best compliment your style of door. The images below are a small sample of many different types of handles are available.
